Description

A simple and nutritious high-protein tofu dinner that’s easy to prepare and packed with flavor.


Ingredients

  • 1 block (14 oz) firm tofu, pressed and cubed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets


Instructions

  1. Press tofu for 15 minutes to remove excess water. Cut into cubes.
  2. In a bowl, mix tofu with soy sauce, cornstarch, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper.
  3. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add tofu and cook until golden, about 5 minutes per side.
  4. Remove tofu from the pan. In the same pan, sauté bell pepper, onion, and broccoli for 4-5 minutes.
  5. Return tofu to the pan and stir to combine. Cook for another 2 minutes.
  6. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Use extra-firm tofu for a crispier texture.
  • Substitute soy sauce with tamari for a gluten-free option.
  • Add crushed red pepper for extra spice.
